Caradiff Arms, Cilgerran Built of Cilgerran stone, it is listed Grade II because it is one of the least altered village buildings in this material. Above the front door there hangs a coracle. Unfortunately, like many village pubs these days, the Cardiff Arms is closed and there is a "To Let" sign in the window.
